Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Use of alcohol may result in multiple anomalies called fetal alcohol syndrome. The fetus may also be born with alcohol dependency and immaturity, but the characteristics noted are specific for fetal alcohol syndrome.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
If the patient is hospitalized for gestational hypertension, deep tendon reflexes are monitored. The blood sugar, temperature, and LOC will also be monitored, but they are not the priority in the hypertensive patient.
